Chapter 88: Chapter 88: You were deceived by your boyfriend
After the college entrance exam results came out, it didn’t take long for people to consistently show off their acceptance letters and the welcome gifts each university prepared for students online.
[Northern Arctic’s Fish: Grand Cathay University’s big gift box, aren’t you jealous!]
The accompanying picture was of a gift box printed with the Grand Cathay University logo, containing a specially customized pen and notebook, a campus card, and a set of four brass bookmarks, each with a unique logo.
[Exam Success: The official statement said you can’t show your exam ticket, can’t show acceptance letters, so just a small showcase of the welcome gift.]
The picture showed the custom tote bag from South University, containing a cup, a set of South University postcards and a keychain, and a campus card.
[Destiny in My Hands: Your welcome gifts are all weak!]
The accompanying picture depicted Stoneford University’s welcome gift—a thick stack of manuals.
Including "Stoneford University Acceptance Letter," "New Student Enrollment Guide," "Academic Guide," "Student Financial Aid Policy Introduction," "New Student Enrollment Safety Guide," "Stoneford University Rules: One Hundred Items," "New Student Electronic Account Usage Guide" ...
The previous comments were filled with envy, but Stoneford University’s comments were full of laughter.
[Flourishing Flowers: Hahaha, Stoneford University is killing me, giving new students a hundred manuals.]
[Gudongdong: You don’t understand, serious universities give booklets. I’m not serious, I want to go to a not serious university. Hahaha]
[Stoneford University Senior: This year the welcome gifts added two more booklets than our year, so envious.]
[My Heart Like Stone: Just saw the mascot doll from Capital University, then looked at Stoneford University’s, what on earth is this??]
Amidst the playful comments, one post grabbed most people’s attention.
[A Cloud-piercing Talisman: Sea City Taoist Academy welcome gift box.]
The picture showed the six-piece set from Scarlett Jennings.
This sparked a wave of secondary comments, all inquiring about what kind of weird university the Taoist Academy was, the first time seeing a school giving out Eight Drigrams Plates and Talisman Papers.
Wasn’t this blatant superstition?
[Rhino Niu Niu: Can anyone explain Sea City Taoist Academy?]
[Capital University’s Little Cutie: I don’t know Sea City Taoist Academy, but I’ve heard of Capital Taoist Academy, it’s said to be a closed campus, idlers can’t enter.]
[Suddenly Hearing Peach Blossoms at Night: These schools should be similar to Buddhist Academies, right?]
[No Matter: Kind of curious, what kind of people would go to such a school?]
Information about Sea City Taoist Academy did not cause a big splash online, mainly because this school hardly had an online presence.
Some even claimed that the so-called Taoist Academy’s six-piece set was just staged photography gimmicks.
These doubts persisted until Sea City’s official account suddenly released a poster about the city’s image ambassadors, pushing the public’s curiosity to another level.
Sea City’s image ambassador was an initiative led by the government and sponsored by the Jennings Group, showcasing the city’s image.
Eight outstanding students were selected from Sea City’s seven colleges, representing the city’s eight districts.
Among them were Scarlett Jennings and Azura Loomis.
No one knew if it was the Sea City government’s deliberate move.
The released poster noted each student’s performance in the recent college entrance exam and their final choice of prestigious university.
Scarlett Jennings, as Sea City’s top scorer this year, with her exquisite and beautiful appearance and impressive scores, successfully took the central position.
When everyone saw the poster, they were almost immediately drawn to Scarlett Jennings in the middle.
Following that was the bright label of Sea City’s top scorer under her picture.
And when everyone excitedly wanted to know which elite university this beauty and academic overachiever finally chose, they saw unexpectedly marked below—
[Sea City Taoist Academy].
The netizens’ first reaction was a bit stunned.
The second reaction was very stunned.
So what kind of school is Sea City Taoist Academy exactly?
Why did their top scorer give up Capital University, Grand Cathay University, such century-old prestigious schools to choose it??
Just... don’t understand.
Not only did the netizens not understand, but the guests invited to the Jennings family’s teacher appreciation banquet didn’t understand either.
To celebrate Scarlett Jennings becoming this year’s top scorer in Sea City, and several other Jennings children entering prestigious universities, the Jennings family specially hosted a teacher appreciation banquet, inviting many notable figures from various circles, the excitement comparable to a grand evening event.
And the time was right when Sea City’s government released the poster that night.
"Azura, what’s going on with your family’s Scarlett Jennings? With such good scores, why choose that kind of school?"
A young lady who was close to Azura Loomis couldn’t resist asking Azura for gossip as soon as she entered.
Clearly, the poster released by Sea City’s official account earlier had piqued everyone’s curiosity to its peak.
Azura Loomis, as one of the representatives of tonight’s banquet, was initially disgruntled since Scarlett Jennings stole her spotlight both as an ambassador and at the teacher appreciation banquet. Her friend was asking about Scarlett Jennings again, dampening her mood further.
"Well, she has a penchant for metaphysics and geomancy, the family persuaded her, but she wouldn’t listen, so they let her be."
Though slightly annoyed, Azura could still maintain a gentle and graceful demeanor, but her tone carried a hint of helplessness.
Those around couldn’t help but be curious upon hearing this.
"She’s the distinguished daughter of the Jennings Family, how can she like these things? Even if she likes them, choosing Taoist Academy for school doesn’t shame the family?"
Azura detected the contempt in the tone but gave only a faint smile instead of joining in on the mocking, merely saying, "You shouldn’t say that, I heard the school is pretty good, after graduation they directly place you in a Taoist temple..."
As soon as she said this, several people couldn’t help but laugh.
"So, straight to being a Taoist after graduation! That’s too hilarious."
One person was bolder, going straight to Scarlett Jennings under the pretense of congratulatory greetings to ask her directly,
"Miss Jennings, I heard that the academy you chose places you in a Taoist temple after graduation, are you really planning on becoming a Taoist?"
She didn’t lower her voice on purpose, everyone around could hear it clearly. Scarlett Jennings, who had been apathetically accepting the attention from all elders, perked up her ears, seeming a bit livelier.
Turning around, looking at the speaker, scanning with her doe eyes, Scarlett Jennings tilted her head slightly and asked,
"And who are you?"
"Ruby Winsor, we met at your homecoming banquet last time."
Though she intended to laugh at her in front of the elders, Ruby Winsor maintained a proper demeanor befitting a lady of her stature.
Scarlett Jennings just nodded slowly at Ruby Winsor.
"I won’t be a Taoist, but if you need, I can give you a divination."
Ruby Winsor, originally displeased by the elder’s constant praise of Scarlett Jennings, especially over the recent days her parents hinted at comparing her with Scarlett Jennings, intended to mock her in front of the elders. Instead, she was met with an unexpected response, making her burst into laughter.
"Hah, you haven’t even started school and you can do divination? Then give me one?"
Scarlett Jennings simply looked at her with a slight smile.
"You’ve been deceived by your boyfriend."
